Abstract:

Aim: To assess the efficacy of a Zhukovsky obstetric double balloon for improving outcomes in women undergoing hysterectomy for postpartum hemorrhage.Materials and methods: This was a randomized controlled study. Participants were divided into two groups to undergo insertion of a Zhukovsky obstetric double balloon prior to hysterectomy (n = 16) or conventional hysterectomy (n = 25).Results: The main reasons for major obstetric hemorrhage were placenta accreta (53.6%), uterine atony (26.8%), uteroplacental apoplexy (14.6%), and amniotic fluid embolism (4.8%). The use of a Zhukovsky obstetric double balloon during postpartum hysterectomy was associated with a 1.7-fold reduction in blood loss and a 2.3-fold reduction in blood loss > 2000 ml compared with conventional hysterectomy.Conclusion: The use of a Zhukovsky obstetric double balloon represents a potent tool for improvement of immediate outcomes of hysterectomy in women with severe postpartum bleeding.
